Johnny Marr pickup selector mod

Kyle

I like Johnny marrs mod on his white on white 62 jaguar, where the bottom pickup selector is actually a 4-way tele slector switch mounted onto a custom made metal piece that fits in the same spot.

Anyone have a scematic for this, or would it just be the same as what a tele would be wired? I would like to keep the other wiring on the metal piece on top of the strings working aswell you see, but i doubt the bottom selector would affect this in any way?

Also, anyone know where i could get a metal piece made in that template?

Well, it really wouldn't be wired the same as a regular Jag control plate, 'cause that would be impossible. To be honest I'm not sure what it would be wired to do. Presumably it no longer has the bass cut function? If it's like a regular 4 position tele switch then he might've had it wired so that it goes bridge, neck, bridge and neck, bridge and neck in series. But I wouldn't like to speculate really.

how do we know it isnt just a 3 way tele switch?

Because he talks about it in Guitarist magazine, and it is set up the way Richie says, with the option of series and parrallel.

Anyone have any other information on this, would the switch fit, and does anyone know of anyone that would be able to create a switch plate suitable?

The only thing I can think of is to ask someone that works with metal if you know someone. I don't really know how you could do it otherwise.
